Riverside by Agnes Obel——國語翻譯 (original) (raw)

在網上有限的譯本上,我看到截然不同的理解。現在我想儘量把我的感覺表達。
以下是我的翻譯,希望各位指正:

Riverside
河邊

Down by the river by the boats
在河邊的泊船處
Where everybody goes to be alone
人們都喜歡獨自前往
Where you won't see any rising sun
那是一個看不到日出的地方
Down to the river we will run
我們跑到那河邊
When by the water we drink to the dregs
在水邊暢飲
Look at the stones on the riverbed
看河牀上的石頭
I can tell from your eyes
我能從你的眼神中看出
You've never been by the riverside
你從未來過這河邊
Down by the water the riverbed
在水邊的河牀上
Somebody calls you somebody says
有人在呼喚,有人在私語
swim with the current and float away
順水遊走然後消失不見
Down by the river everyday
每天如此,在這河邊
Oh my God I see how everything is torn in the river deep
哦 上帝 我看到這一切如何在河中深處腐爛
And I don't know why I go the way
我不知道爲何依然執意前行
Down by the riverside
在那河邊
When that old river runs pass your eyes
當那條古老的河從你的眼前流過
To wash off the dirt on the riverside
洗盡河邊的污垢
Go to the water so very near
走到離水邊更近的地方
The river will be your eyes and ears
將更清晰地看到、更清楚地聽到這一切
I walk to the borders on my own
我獨自走到水的邊沿
fall in the water just like a stone
像一塊石頭一樣墜入河中
Chilled to the marrow in them bones
沒入徹骨的寒冷
Why do I go here all alone
爲何我要獨自前來
Oh my God I see how everything is torn in the river deep
哦 上帝 我看到這一切如何在河中深處腐爛
And I don't know why I go the way
我不知道爲何依然執意前行
Down by the riverside
在那河邊
Oh my God I see how everything is torn in the river deep
哦 上帝 我看到這一切如何在河中深處腐爛
And I don't know why I go the way
我不知道爲何依然執意前行
Down by the riverside
在那河邊
Oh ....
Oh ....
Oh ....
Down by the riverside
在那河邊
Down by the riverside
在那河邊

最後,我也希望看到更多不同的理解。當然,請不要出現明顯的錯譯,例如:
swim with the current 順水遊走,而非趕緊遊走
drink to the dregs 喝幹(杯中的酒)、暢飲
。。。

當然,我的錯誤也請指正,嘿嘿!

歌詞原文如述:
Riverside by Agnes Obel
--------
Down by the river by the boats
Where everybody goes to be alone
Where you won't see any rising sun
Down to the river we will run
When by the water we drink to the dregs
Look at the stones on the riverbed
I can tell from your eyes
You've never been by the riverside
Down by the water the riverbed
Somebody calls you somebody says
swim with the current and float away
Down by the river everyday
Oh my God I see how everything is torn in the river deep
And I don't know why I go the way
Down by the riverside
When that old river runs pass your eyes
To wash off the dirt on the riverside
Go to the water so very near
The river will be your eyes and ears
I walk to the borders on my own
fall in the water just like a stone
Chilled to the marrow in them bones
Why do I go here all alone
Oh my God I see how everything is torn in the river deep
And I don't know why I go the way
Down by the riverside
Oh my God I see how everything is torn in the river deep
And I don't know why I go the way
Down by the riverside
Oh ....
Oh ....
Oh ....
Down by the riverside
Down by the riverside
